Editorial Reviews

Review

“intriguing...an energetic, bold, well-documented survey...recommended”―Choice. --This text refers to the paperback edition.

From the Inside Flap

Some film and novel revisions go so far beyond adaptation that they demand a new designation. This critical collection explores movies, plays, essays, comics and video games that supercede adaptation to radically transform their original sources. Fifteen essays investigate a variety of texts that rework everything from literary classics to popular children's books, demonstrating how these new, stand-alone creations critically engage their sources and contexts. Particular attention is paid to parody, intertextuality, and fairy-tale transformations in the examination of these works, all of which occupy a unique narrative and creative space. --This text refers to the paperback edition.
